I’m able to adapt to a wide variety of personalities and breeds, older dogs as well and I have experience administering medicine orally. I like to get to know your pet’s personality and routine and will respond and adjust accordingly. For me it’s so important to get to know your dog well so they feel comfortable whilst in my care. 🐶🏡 Your terms, phrases and commands all help build the relationship, establishing a trust and rapport. Familiar toys, comfy blankets, beds and treats are also helpful in making your pet’s stay an enjoyable vacation. 🏖

During house sits I look after your pets whilst cleaning and maintaining the standards of your premises. I understand the importance of making sure your home is looked after just as well as your pets are and maintaining good quality communication throughout with photos and daily updates.

Information Thomas L. would like to know about your pet
Each pet comes with individual needs. So, at a meet and greet I always like to discuss with you their likes and dislikes, their routines and their characters, taking into account breed, background etc. As said above, it’s so important to know your dog’s routine and what they are used to. So at a meet and greet we can discuss what their needs are; feeding times, toys, treats, walk times and how long, what they like/dislike and various factors like their age, size etc. It is important for me that you are reassured your pets are having a great time!
A typical day
I am very happy to provide a bunch of fun activities; walking, running, ball chasing and games, rewarding them with food treats you supply to keep your pet stimulated and well looked after. Conveniently located in Reculver beside the sea, the area is ideal for dogs with no busy traffic and plenty of calm, green spaces. (And I like to take care of them like they’re my own!)

Reviews

Thomas just spent a week at our house looking after our young Havanese while we were on holiday. I was extremely satisfied with his services. He and Bramble had an instant bond, with Thomas being very attentive to the information I’d left about how we were training him, and how to manage grooming etc. It is testament to Thomas’ dog whispering skills that Bramble was much better groomed than I ever managed to get him on our return! The house was also well looked after and very tidy when we got back. I would very much recommend Thomas to others looking for a dog sitter for short or long periods.


Thomas was a great companion for our dog and cat while we were away for a long Christmas holiday. We felt very at ease knowing they had him home with them and we came home to a tidy house and happy animals.
Thomas has looked after my elder bunny a few times and has been great

Thomas looked after our greyhound Katie very well over a two week period. Katie is a diva and quite demanding but apparently was very well behaved whilst with Thomas, who has a very good and patient way with dogs and easily wins their affection and trust. Katie seems to have enjoyed her time very much and we would certainly be happy for Thomas to care for Katie in the future even for a longer period as she has returned to us happy and content which is a great relief.
